Lil Alice - Little Cottonwood Lyrics

We lived somewhere else
Inside of an everlasting dream
Your mirage follows
Always inches away
Cradling me into the shadows
Yet to explore
I doze away to the sight of you
Only to see you've followed me here
Yearning that this never ending dream
Becomes our reality
A lasting impression stained into each glimpse
Leaving me anticipating
For the moment I close my eyes
Whenever I go to sleep
To see you're there
To know I'll wake up and not be without you
As the moon descends into its waters
The mirage reveals as no façade
That gratifies reality itself
Introduced by the sun rays
That managed its way through
That's when I turned over to say
"I had a dream about you"
I'll sing you songs, write you poems
Sweep you off your feet
I'll hold you tight
Just like the grey sheets that we're underneath
I'll be real honest to you
Every promise I will keep
Give me one chance and you'll see!
Give me one chance and you'll see!
That I'm not faking, I'm not lying
I'm the one for you
You left me once before
But I still put my trust in you
I know you feel it, what we have
Is something special babe
But this can't work
If you always turn and run away
No, this can't work
If you always turn and run away
No, this can't work
If you always turn and run away
Will you just let me in one time?
Will you just let me in one time?
I gave you my heart, tryna make you mine
I'll be the best man, I won't tell no lies
I'll give you the whole world
I know you been hurt, and I paid the price
Go anywhere that you would like
Give me one chance, please roll the dice girl
Everyone close knows this about "E"
Take a big chance, you can count on me
Gone ghost for the past few months on me
It do not matter though
I promised my mom I would bring you home
We can leave here if you don't like the snow
Promise you now, where you go I go
Will you just let me in one time?
Will you just let me in one time?
I gave you my heart, tryna make you mine
I'll be the best man, I won't tell no lies
I'll give you the whole world
I know you been hurt, and I paid the price
Go anywhere that you would like
Give me one chance, please roll the dice girl
Everyone close knows this about "E"
Take a big chance, you can count on me
Gone ghost for the past few months on me
It do not matter though
I promised my mom I would bring you home
We can leave here if you don't like the snow
Promise you now, where you go I go
We can leave here if you don't like the snow
Promise you now, where you go I go
Promise you now, where you go I go

We lived somewhere else
Inside of an everlasting dream
Your mirage follows
Always inches away
Cradling me into the shadows
Yet to explore
I doze away to the sight of you
Only to see you've followed me here
Yearning that this never ending dream

A lasting impression stained into each glimpse
